Patients with life-threatening diseases and serious medical problems should always consult their doctor before receiving acupressure. Avoid the abdominal area if you have intestinal cancer, tuberculosis, a serious cardiac condition, or leukemia.
Avoid the abdominal area during pregnancy. Be more gentle and careful when applying acupressure to a pregnant woman.
Apply finger pressure gradually to enable the tissue layers to respond in a healing manner. Never press into the body abruptly. If an area hurts excessively when you apply pressure, use a light touch instead.
Use a lighter, more sensitive touch in the lymph areas, such as throat, groin, below the ears, and the outer breasts near the armpits.
Do not press directly on a serious burn until it has healed.
Ulcerous conditions and infections should receive medical care.
Do not work directly on a recently formed scar or tumor. During the first month after injury or operation, do not apply pressure directly onto the affected site.
Avoid practicing self-acupressure under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
